Bug Description
Fresh install of 16.04 in a virtual box VM from the "Desktop" ISO.
Tried to install docker but it hung during the install, relevant ps fax showed:
2033 pts/17 S+ 0:00 | \_ sudo apt install docker.io
2034 pts/17 S+ 0:00 | \_ apt install docker.io
5049 pts/1 Ss+ 0:00 | \_ /usr/bin/dpkg --status-fd 59 --configure bridge-utils:amd64 cgroupfs-mount:a
5118 pts/1 S+ 0:00 | \_ /bin/sh /var/lib/
5172 pts/1 S+ 0:00 | \_ /bin/sh /usr/sbin/
5208 pts/1 S+ 0:00 | \_ systemctl start docker.service
5209 pts/1 S+ 0:00 | \_ /bin/systemd-
Presumable it is trying to prompt for a password to start the service but that is not propagating to the UI.
Killing 5208 and 5209 got me the not unexpected:
Terminated
invoke-rc.d: initscript docker, action "start" failed.

Trying to install it again gives the same result (only faster).
